In her day, Rosa Park's behavior was socially unacceptable to white people, it was illegal, and people of her race were obviously considered threats because that is where all of the Jim Crow laws came from.

I fail to see the difference, myself. But, then again, I did take an oath to support and defend the Constitution against ALL enemies, foreign and DOMESTIC.

Minorities and women didn't gain civil rights and equality by sitting back and accepting half-a$$ed compromises such as concealed pistol permits and concealed carry only. They got their rights respected by standing up for them aggressively and publicaly.
